PeltiMax burner is equipped with following safety systems, description of functions and settings of
which effectively protect the user against backburning. burner
The main protections are:
See User’s manual of controller.
1. Burner temperature sensor
Burner, once it detects temperature over 90OC goes from
work mode into burning off mode, at the same time it
switches off the external feeder and sets the fan for 100%
power.
2. Patented technology of burning in
overpressure
Burning in overpressure is founded on a physical
phenomenon which happens in inner feeder of burner
3. Chimney for pouring fuel
In upper part of the burner there is a chimney for
pouring fuel. It is equipped with a barring hatch with a
counterweight. In case of backfire the hatch closes inlet
and also prevents fire against reaching the fuel hopper.
4. Flexible pouring pipe
Flexible pouring pipe is an elastic connection between
external feeder and burner. Its main function is delivering
fuel to burner, additionally it also protects against
backfiring. Under influence of high temperature pipe
starts to deform and extend which makes fuel delivering
impossible.

regulations
6.1. Exploitation
m
ATTENTION! PeltiMax type burners can only
be serviced by adults. Before commencing
the servicing of a burner it is mandatory to
be acquainted with the user’s manual.
Before starting up the burner all connections and joints
with a feeder should be checked. Mounting screws, which
join a burner with a boiler should be checked, also the
thermical seals between a burner and a boiler.
Burner is started up according to user’s manual after
connecting to the electricity by powering wire with zeroed
plug. In order to ensure the right operation of a burner,
depending on a quality of burnt fuel, the inside of a burner
should be cleaned from fouling and slag.
Depending on a group of burners, we have 2 ways of
conducting the maintenance of furnace plate.

Group of burners Elite and Master is equipped in
removable furnace.
After cleaning the furnace, it should be properly put again
in a burner. The lock in a furnace must be precisely put in
the nest of a burner. It is shown on the picture F11.
m
ATTENTION! After burning off the burner,
a furnace can still be hot. That is why you
should always use tools, i.e. pliers for
removing it.
6.1.2. Maintenance of furnace plate in
PeltiMax Pro burner
PeltiMax Pro group of burners is equipped in a furnace
pipe which is installed in a covering pipe. In order to get to
a furnace, the operation 1 and 2 should be repeated from
the scheme of installation of PeltiMax Pro burner in boiler’s
door (see page 11).
m ATTENTION! Maintenance of a burner must
always be conducted on a cold burner.
After termination of warranty period, and afterwards once
a year, the technical condition of a burner should be
checked by a professional service person.
m
ATTENTION! External covering pipe should
be periodically (depending on amount
of ash in fuel), ideally once a month,
disconnected from a burner body in order to
remove ash.
i It should be remembered about cleaning
the nozzles inside the furnace pipe and
removable furnace. Before switching off
the burner power, the burning-off process
should be conducted.

7. Service of devices
m
ATTENTION! Servicing of devices can only
be executed by switched off electrical
powering of a burner and a boiler.
7.1. Photosensor
Photosensors in a burner should be cleaned from time to
time with a damp, soft rug, similarly to oil or gas burners.
After removing the cover of a burner, the photosensor
should be removed from the socket (1), then it should be
cleaned and installed again. After executing the above
activities, the cover of a burner should be mounted.
Frequency of cleaning the photosensor:
Bakery – every month
Boiler rooms – every 3 months
7.2. Replacement of electrical igniter
If an igniter, despite the message „firing-up” does not
heat-up, then most probably it is damaged. In order
to replace the igniter, the cover of a burner should be
removed. On the right side of the fan, there is a steel
covering of igniter, in which there is an electrical heater. It
should be disconnected from the electricity by removing
clasps on wires, and then twist it and remove.
In reverse order a new igniter and cover of a burner
should be installed.
7.3. Feeder pipe cleaning
If a cord from a fuel bag or other object gets inside the
feeder pipe, which would block the work of a feeder, then
feeder motor will get overheated, burn the fuse or it will be
switched off by the thermical sensor which is inside the
motor.
In order to remove an object from the feeder pipe, the
powering wire should be removed from the socket inside
the controller, unscrew the screws mounting the gear
F12. Position of photosensor in PeltiMax
14 PeltiMax pellet burner user’s manual
motor to feeder pipe, remove the spring from the pipe and
remove the object which was the cause of breakdown.
Then the feeder should be assembled.
7.4. Cleaning of a burner
One of the reasons of lack of firing-up of a burner is a slag
filling in the burner chamber. The igniter will not ignite the
fire when there is a slag in its way. Slag does not burn
itself. As we are unsure as to the quality of fuel, that is
why initially everyday, later every now and then we clean
furnace pipe of a burner from slag and ash. After removing
a burner, the remnants of slag and ash should be cleaned
with a wire-brush or a small poker. Common cause of
accumulating a slag is switching off a burner with the main
switch. Too abrupt removal of air-flow (oxygene) to the
furnace causes unburning of fuel remnants. By another
firing up of a burner, without cleaning it from slag and ash,
a smoke can come out from a burner as the openings in it
are blocked with slag. Burner is not aired enough.
m
IMPORTANT! Before switching off the power
of a burner, burning off proces should be
conducted.
m
ATTENTION! Outer covering pipe in
PeltiMax burners group should be
periodically (depending on amount of ash
in fuel) – ideally once a month – unscrew
from burner body in order to remove ash
between pipes.
i In case of serious brakedowns an installer
should be contacted.

8. Reasons of improper work 8.7. Blower damage

Reasons:
8.1. Burner does not fire up
• Blockade of blower blades – unscrew the blower cover
Reasons: and check if they are not blocked mechanically
• No fuel – check the fuel hopper and the feeder, if it is • Check the voltage on blower wires
not blocked; • Check the capacitor of blower motor
• Too small start up dose – check the start up dose;
• Burnt igniter – check the igniter
8.2. Burner fires up but does not go
into the first power
Reasons:
• Improper start-up dose – check the start-up dose
• Dirty or faulty photosensor – clean it or replace it
• Damaged outer thermostat in oil boilers or bakery ovens
8.3. Photosensor checking
See page 31.
Measuring readings:
• In darkness 0-5 units
• In full light 100 units
8.4. Overheating of inner feeder.
Reasons:
• Burner dirty with slag
• Weak chimney draft – chimney exhaust fan should be
used
8.5. Damage of the feeder sensor–
alarm can not be cancelled
Reasons:
• The most common reason of this breakdown is
damage of thermo protection of a sensor, which results in
overheating of measuring part. Despite burner cooling off,
the fault can not be cancelled, in this case the measuring
sensor should be replaced. In order to verify if the sensor
is faulty indeed, its resistance should be checked, it
should be between 1-5 Ω. The resistance of a damaged
sensor is about 100 kΩ.
8.6. Feeder filling
The inner feeder is so designed to mix and feed fuel
evenly. The reason of filling the inner feeder can be:
• Bad setting of the inner feeder in relation to outer feeder
– increase capacity of inner feeder (service menu / burner
feeder)
• Gearmotor damage – replace the gearmotor
• Badly adjusted interval of feeder work – this value
should not exceed 20s. (service menu / burner interval)
